Datos IO and Cisco Team to Enable Cloud Backup and Recovery at Scale for Multi-Cloud Environments
Today, Datos IO, the application-centric cloud data management company,
announced availability of an integrated solution together with Cisco (News - Alert)
(NASDAQ: CSCO) that simplifies and automates data protection for next
generation customer-centric applications running on Cisco Application
Centric Infrastructure (ACI), Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS), and
Cisco HyperFlex hyper-converged systems.
Customers are in the midst of a digital transformation journey where
they are either deploying next-generation customer-centric applications
natively in the cloud or migrating their traditional applications to the
cloud - all with the end goal to drive operational efficiency and to
deliver top line growth with new customer-centric products and services.
As part of this journey, enterprises operate their IT across a
multi-cloud infrastructure, deploying applications on the best suited
cloud whether private cloud, public cloud, or managed clouds.
Datos IO understands that multi-cloud is the new normal and data
management needs to be fundamentally reinvented at the control plane
level for enterprise applications, both hyper-scale cloud applications
and traditional applications when deployed on cloud-native
infrastructure. Datos IO's revolutionary product, RecoverX is founded
upon Consistent Orchestrated Distributed Recovery (CODR™) engine, the
company's next-generation application-centric data management
architecture, enabling customers to address their use cases such as
cloud-native backups, backup directly to the cloud, test/dev in the
cloud, recoverability of data across cloud boundaries and on-premise for
data portability.
The Cisco® Application Centric Infrastructure (Cisco ACI™)
solution provides an elastic, controller-based software-defined
networking (SDN) fabric. The Cisco ACI solution reduces total cost of
ownership (TCO), automates IT tasks, and accelerates data center
application deployment. It provides these benefits by using a
business-relevant SDN policy model across networks, servers, storage
solutions, security solutions, and services. Cisco ACI in combination
with Cisco Nexus® 9000 Series Switches provides superior performance,
deep application insight, and a unified solution to automate the data
center from end to end, while keeping the needs of the application
foremost.
With this integrated solution, organizations centered on Cisco
infrastructure can now use Datos IO's RecoverX elastic data management
solution for deploying and protecting enterprise applications across
hybrid cloud and multi-cloud environments. The joint solution:
-
Accelerates next-generation application deployment and protection
using Datos IO data management solutions and Cisco ACI programmable
infrastructure.
-
Reduces complexity for improved manageability and automation,
leveraging the unified, highly scalable architecture of Cisco UCS,
with consistent management across all computing environments -
traditional and modern.
-
Maximizes application performance using application-centric ACI fabric
and application-aware data protection from Datos IO RecoverX.
-
Enhances the productivity of DBAs, DevOps and developer teams through
easy manageability and data mobility across clouds.
"Datos IO's vision for multi-cloud, application-centric infrastructure
is closely aligned with Cisco's," said Tarun Thakur, CEO, Datos IO.
"We're extremely excited to partner with Cisco ACI, Cisco UCS and Cisco
HyperFlex teams to help organizations accelerate their digital
transformation journey by deploying next-generation cloud applications
with confidence and leveraging the cloud for operational data protection
use cases, such as backup and recovery, compliance, test/dev, and cloud
mobility."
Cisco has a proven history of working with partners to develop solutions
that deliver business value. The Cisco Unified Computing System (Cisco
UCS™) and Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (Cisco ACI™) are open
infrastructure frameworks supported by a broad, mature partner
ecosystem. The alliance with Datos IO will extend benefits of Cisco's
data center architectures to agile, 3rd platform application
environments, and the two companies will collaborate going forward to
bring additional data management solutions to the marketplace.

About Datos IO
Datos IO is the application-centric data management company for the
multi-cloud world. Datos IO delivers a radically novel approach to data
management helping organizations embrace the cloud with confidence by
delivering solutions that protect, mobilize, and monetize their data -
at scale. Unlike traditional data protection solutions that protect
applications either at a VM-level or at a storage LUN-level, Datos IO
has reinvented data protection by eliminating any dependencies on VM or
LUN constructs - thus, enabling a true application-centric data
management approach. This revolutionary application-centric approach
provides customers with dramatic backup storage efficiency, provides
data management services at a granular level (e.g. rows/tables vs.
entire VM or entire database), and enables customers to intelligently
move their applications back and forth between public clouds or across
cloud environments. Backed by Lightspeed Venture Partners and True
Ventures, Datos IO is headquartered in San Jose, California. To learn
